MARTINI BOYS SAY: Chef and owner Eduardo Polit used to be the chef at Frederick's Downtown, and, before that, the sous chef at Soho House. Now he's opened his own place, a small South American restaurant in almost-not-fashionable-anymore Williamsburg. Soups include a spicy black bean and cilantro (vegan); chicken and dumpling; and avocado and ginger vichyssoise. Salads include the latitude zero crab salad (green papaya, red onions, cilantro, aji Amarillo dressing); papas con choclo (fire-roasted corn, steamed potatoes, and ham mayo); and the qinoa and apple salad (vegan; with sultana raisins, carrots, chamomile infused qinoa, and apple cider dressing.) Appetizers include the crab and sofrito gluten-free empanadas; palitos, char-grilled chicken skewers with chimichurri sauce and yucca fried; fish tacos with beer battered fried fish, wasabi-tomatillo relish, cilantro, and encebollado; plantain whistles with green plaintain chips, dusted with cumin, and tomatillo salsa; and grilled merguez sausage with harisa sauce and panisse. Entrées include the lomo asado con yucca y chimichurri, traditional Argentianian cut steak with soft yucca cake and chimichurri sauce; a risotto con pollo, Arborio rice, peppers, onions, tomatoes, sweet plantains; salmon miso-honey with baby bok choy; a palak paneer, creamy curried spinach with fried homemade paneer of tofu and basmati rice.

I've been to many restaurants in this area, but I think their service at Latitude Zero is one of the best. When we had a group of people, it was perfect to share their dip & chips (LOVED crispy plantain chips). We could relax and enjoy conversation with great food.

I threw my wife's baby shower at Zero Latitude on 5/02/09 for about 30 women. Eduardo and Kourtney Polit were soooo accommodating. The food, Sangria and service were amazing. I'm glad they opened up a restaurant in Williamsburg. They actually care about the people in our neighborhood. I will definitely be back real soon.

We tried Zero Latitude for Valentine's Day and it was AMAZING! Both the food and service were excellent and it is very well-priced. Do yourself a favor and check it out! :)
